New SCORP (Statewide Comprehensive Outdoor Recreation Plan)

http://www.nysparks.com/news/meeting/view.asp?advisoryId=39<http://www.nysparks.com/news/meeting/view.asp?advisoryId=39>

A public meeting is being held, And our very own ADK-TJ will be our spokesman for OHV ( Off-highway vehicle ) users everywhere. It is our hope that we all start to make an effort to attend these things in force, and let our opinions be known. I would also like to start attending in numbers..Since it seems this is mostly what they care about... This is our/my kick off to begin to try and make a difference, and the start for me personally to say, I refuse to sit idle, while the state continues to close roads, buy property and make it limited access, or not recognize our sport as a valid. We deserve some space too...

This is not just our club... But all clubs or individuals who drive a OHV in NYS, or even individuals.
We need to try to band together...We need numbers..Big ones...

Put aside our differences and come together...I don¢t care what association you are with, wether you are hardcore or stock, or even if you don¢t drive a OHV, but care. .. We need to try... I¢m tired of not Tring , or waiting while we lose everything.

Here Is the details. I am having button made to identify to all, who we are, and what we stand for. Everyone who shows up will receive one. They will be green, and read

USE
RESPECT
PROTECT
_________
OHV USER

Just to let know, this was a post on a local club forum that was posted on i think the EC4WDA fourm than our pres put it or recieved it and posted on our fourm and i was just passing the word along. Im sure there is a much larger voice on pirate in these matters and could use some help so please contact the person listed. If his email is not listed i think i can find it.
Anyone else on this side of the country that could make this and help, please contact the ones listed.
Thanks!
